It is Darin Erstad at the start and Darin Erstad at the finish, as the Anaheim Angels designated hitter becomes the third player in MLB history to have a leadoff home run and a walk-off home run in the same game. Erstad’s heroics lead the Angels to a 7-6 win in 11 innings over the Minnesota Twins at Edison Field in Anaheim. Since Erstad, an additional three have had a leadoff and a walk-off in the same game.
